Description:
Eryngium yuccifolium, commonly known as rattlesnake master, is a perennial herb native to the tallgrass prairies of central and eastern North America. It features stiff, long, narrow bluish-green leaves and grows up to 6 feet tall. The plant produces dense, ball-shaped umbels of flowers that attract many insects and serve as a larval host for the rattlesnake-master borer moth. It requires full sun and well-drained soil, making it ideal for prairie or native meadow restoration projects.
